that first one is rather awkward.

Same with that earlier post, long ph jackets worn with such grungy slim pants tucked into leather socks. Almost like a repulsively disproportionate schoolgirl outfit


disagree completely about the first one, it looks great.

Completely agree with the 2nd point though,I hate PH styled like that.

I guess manton's theory was right that threads will devolve into waywt spinoffs coupled with swd default where2kop ... sorry mr parker, was a valiant effort :/

What? This thread is loaded with tons of good information on brands that aren't elsewhere discussed, I'm not really sure what else you want...

The Transit Uomo blazer (and corduroys) I ordered just came, and they are crazy-nice, especially for Yoox prices. Reminds me of an Italianate Geller. Really good. Obviously I only have the two pieces, but I can see the brand being a forum darling if it had more exposure/cachet. I'll post some pictures sometime.

Thanks for the tip-off, Fok!

The Paolini jacket is also nice, but the 52 fits a bit too small and short in the arms for me. Another brand worth considering.


Also, for future reference, I would say that the jacket and pants both fit true to size - the jacket feels like it has an intentionally dropped shoulder. I bought a medium in the pants (usually a ~31-32" waist, and an XL in the jacket (41.5" chest)

I know this isn't really the place for product reviews, but I also picked up a pair of Opening Ceremony pants that felt incredibly overpriced at 120$. The fit was also pretty wonky, and they were just...ugly. Partially my fault - didn't realize they were wool "carpenter" pants, and not just trousers with a self-fabric knee patch. Regardless, not impressed.

Here are some pictures:

Wool/polyamid/mohair/cashmere blend jacket - a nice amount of stretch, ventless, no cuff buttons. 3 patch pockets, unlined, high buttoning point.

I really like that, Synth. No longer on yoox...I've been hunting the google but no luck so far :(

Fits perfectly into what I like to wear ugh.
